The team behind "Vanishing Point" have created a scenic environment that places the body at its heart: as the outer limit of existence, as the border that our consciousness seeks to cross in its struggle to lay claim to the world in which we live in. The scene becomes a mirror of existence, reflecting our deepest fears coupled with images drawn from the human condition.
This powerfully poetic and creative duet, which requires a great deal of physical intensity, introduces us to a world that lies somewhere between an imagination steeped in symbolism and a sombre reality. Set against a backdrop of a powerful electronic score and vibrant, shifting lights, spider-like motions, bursts of movement and micro-movements indicate the ambiguous struggle that the two performers are subjected to in equal measure.
The Spring Forward Festival is an organization of the 2023 Eleusis European Capital of Culture, DAN.C.CE UNITIVA and the European Aerowaves contemporary dance network.Embedded media
